Firewall setting to allow HTTP access

Hello,

I just installed WAMPserver on a new server with windows server 2008. However, it isn't accessible from other computers on my LAN unless I turn off the Windows firewall. I'm not that familiar with configuring the firewall. Can somebody please give me a simple walkthrough on how to allow HTTP access through the firewall?

Thanks,

Jim

No matter within or outside LAN access, you need to setup Access, DNS, and VH; Access for permission to connect to your Wamp PC, DNS to tie Domain(s) to your Wamp PC, and VH to host multiple Domains/Websites/IP's and even you have only 1 Domain/IP, you should use VH to set it up w/ the site you want to show up first on top and localhost on bottom and others in middle if having more than 1 site; w/ VH, other PC's, no matter w/i or outside LAN, can access/see websites/contents of that particular folder set for that particular VH on your wamp PC. If dont have real Domain, just skip DNS guide

Yes, it's online. I CAN access the wampserver, but only with the firewall turned off.
